Review # 1 was written on 2015-09-27 00:00:00 William Costello A subject that has interested me, and it was a real eye opener. It tells how the Company morphed from a purely trading organisation, into a huge bureaucracy running large areas of India. The eye opener was that this was the last thing they really wanted to do. I took a while to read it as I sort of cheated on a book challenge, and used it as my book that I started, but hadn't finished. Does not go in to massive detail, but it's an excellent starting point for looking at this elongated period of history spanning nearly three centuries.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-10-03 00:00:00 Jerrell Schermerhorn I had the pleasure of studying British history with one of Philip Lawson's former graduate students. Unfortunately, Professor Lawson passed away shortly before I began my own MA. I've also read much of his work that he did on tea and the tea trade, of which the EIC played a major role. First rate work by a first rate researcher, writer and educator.
